Answer 2

Sprinkle some taco seasoning, or parmesan cheese on it as soon as it's done popping. or the cheese powder from a box of mac & cheese. (you can use the noodles for pasta salad or in a soup, etc)

Here's the recipe for pizza hut's bread stick seasoning (from topsecretrecipes.com.) You could also sprinkle it on popcorn:

4 tablespoons dry parmesan/romano cheese
3 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon oregano

For something sweet, you could sprinkle cinnamon sugar on it, or drizzle melted chocolate over it.
